Is or is not the name on your birth certificate Peggy? Yes OR No, answer the question! No?!?! What don't want to answer? Case closed!
I am called by a shortened name.

Yet...on my legal documents is my given or, formal married name.

what legal documents don't have obama's given name? to date the only thing we've seen that listed him under a different name was an elementary school admissions form and that wasn't filled out by him ( most likely filled out by his step-father )..

Oh, one thing about this poll, that tells us only 43% believe obama was born i this country;

Poll: One in four Americans think Obama was not born in U.S. - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

The sample includes only 25% of republicans, so that tells you right there, even with a skewed poll, more than just "birthers" have their doubts.

No traction? The number of people with doubts about obama has grown. That's the good news.

Once again, historical facts are not proven via opinion poll. The fact that a lot of people have fallen for some slick misinformation without doing independent research does not mean that there is actually anything to this conspiracy theory.

And again sanrene, what do you think actually happened? Since you seem to believe that Obama was born in Kenya, please tell us exactly how you believe all this happened. When did Ann Dunham leave Hawaii, her family and friends, for Kenya? Why didn't she tell anybody she was leaving? Where in Kenya was Obama born then? Why would the grandparents commit all this fraud when it's not hard to get a child of an American citizen naturalized?

I'm not asking you what you know, I'm asking you what you think, what you believe. If you think Obama wasn't born in Hawaii then you must have some alternate theory.

Looks like they have issues with some of the short-form BCs too.
